Nicaraguans like that Survivor is highlighting its harsh environment

“Survivor” contestants are infamous for their petty catfights, but Nicaragua's tourism industry is holding out hope for something more.

 

When 20 American contestants face off for the $1 million grand prize on Survivor Nicaragua, about 13 million Americans will tune into watch — giving the country a level of pop-culture exposure like never before.

 

The Emmy award-winning reality TV show, which begins airing Sept. 15 on CBS, has promoted this season with a dramatic trailer highlighting Nicaragua as an exotic and untamed land of “impenetrable terrain” and “savage wildlife.”
